Mitchell David "Mitch" Albom (born May 23, 1958) is an American best-selling author, journalist, screenwriter, dramatist, radio and television broadcaster, and musician. His books have sold over 35 million copies worldwide. Having achieved national recognition for sports writing in the earlier part of his career, he is perhaps best known for the inspirational stories and themes that weave through his books, plays, and films.
Mitch Albom was born May 23, 1958, in Passaic, New Jersey. Albom lived in Buffalo, New York for a little while until his family settled in Oaklyn, New Jersey which is close to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He grew up in a small, middle-class neighborhood from which most people never left. Mitch was once quoted as saying that his parents were very supportive, and always used to say, “Don’t expect your life to finish here. There’s a big world out there. Go out and see it.” His older sister, younger brother, and he himself, all took that message to heart and traveled extensively. His siblings are currently settled in Europe. Albom once mentioned that now his parents say, “Great. All our kids went and saw the world and now no one comes home to have dinner on Sundays.”

Plot: Mitch became caught up with his career as a sport commentator and journalist. He ignored his girlfriend and did not make time to do things in life that are of the most value to a human being. Morrie was one of Mitch's professors in college and a famous scholar. One day Mitch was watching television and saw Morrie giving an interview stating that he is dying of Lou Gehrig disease or ALS.

Hello!! My name is Alexandria Romo and I am very pleased to share with the YouTube community my first attempt at voice recording a novel. I've chosen to undertake Mitch Albom's charming novel //The Five People you Meet in Heaven// because when I read it for the first time many years ago I realized that life isn't about the one, but rather about the many. I realize that this video--being the first of it's type on my channel--isn't perfect. Besides the muted presence of background sounds, uneven meshing of different takes, and small mistakes, I will continue to improve until I get it right. I am still trying to work out the kinks in my system and learn quickly the skills I will need to provide my audience a piece of good audio. I have a ways to go, but hopefully I can find my footing quickl...
